lyrics

There's sun glow on the horizon.
A hint of frost in the air. It's
halfway between light and dark.
(I'm) Half asleep in a half tipped chair. A
mourning dove sings her [Em]morning song.
Crow is in his tree. There's a
rooster calling to greet the dawn. He
must have had his morning tea.

There's a rain cloud on the horizon. Doing
Morning chores alone.
Splitting wood; stacking logs. An
eye on the cloud; An ear on the phone.
Wild geese sing their traveling song;
Echos cross the bay.
rooster's been singin' all morning long. He
sure has got something to say.

I'm staring out at the horizon. Watching
wind blown leaves in the air.
Watching that cloud; watching the road;
Checking the mail, there's nothing there. A
Red-tail banks, her colors showing,
buoyed by the breeze
That damn rooster's still crowing
Rooster just does what he please

There's a full moon on the horizon.
Red and gold in the west.
Watching the colors fade away,
Outside, in gloves and vest.
Can of soup in the kitchen;
re-reading that note on the door.
That Rooster finally stopped crowing.
Maybe his throat got sore.
